Duck and Cover Jackets

Duck and cover jackets are probably my favourite item of clothing from the collection, especially the duffer coats. It’s a comfy coat that even has quilted checked lining and just perfect for an outdoor kind of guy. It really is a must have item, every guy will be envious. These coats are an investment, and can last you a few winters. Made of wool, so you’ll be tucked up like a kipper. However, they aren’t made for the Antarctic, they are more of a style statement, than something you just chuck on when its cold.

Prices range from a starting price of £59 right up to £143; in grey, black or checked. So you just can’t go wrong, these are High Street prices for top quality design and materials by Duck and Cover. It’s definitely an item on my boyfriends Christmas list, put it that way. You can wear these jackets with absolutely anything, but don’t wear too much pattern with the checked jackets or you’ll look like you’ve got dressed in the dark. But whatever floats your vote, I guess.

Masculine and military trends are all over this seasons collections, so accessorise with pieces from these trends if you don’t want to go the whole hog. Seriously though, what are you waiting for? I know how indecisive you sometimes are, but with these jackets, they really are being laid out on a plate for you. Grab yours from the Duck and Cover Jackets collection now, before we are out of stock.

Over the last three winter seasons, fashion has been inspired by designs and themes from yester year. This season is no different with the era in trend being the late 1930s. Although this era is often associated with dancing girls and dapper gentlemen, the trend is actually much more down to earth than this. The trend is the lumber jack shirt but most designer brands have given it more up to date styling.

One designer brand which has incorporated the lumber jack shirt into their current collection is Duck and Cover. This brand is renowned for their ability to take a traditional item and add quirky styling to bring it bang up to date for the fashion conscious male buyer. Duck and Cover have not created a lumber jack shirt as this would be too conventional for this off the wall brand, instead they have created a lumber jack inspired jacket.

The Maverick Check Duck and Cover Jacket is available in two colours for the current season. The first is steel check which incorporates shades of grey, black and white to create a modern coloured check. The second colour option available is poppy check which includes vivid red and black check which is very eye catching. Both of these colours have a more modern palette than conventional lumber jack shirts which are traditionally variations of dark red, blue and white in design.

Although traditionally lumber jack shirts are button fastening, this modern Duck and Cover jacket has zip fastening with additional button detailing. Two pockets can be found to the chest whilst two further pockets can be found further down the front. An additional pocket can also be found on the left arm to add a further hint of modern styling. Infamous Duck and Cover branding can be found to the arm and back of the neck along with the buttons and zip whilst military styling in the form of should detail has also been added to this style.

 The ideal way to wear this piece from Duck and Cover jackets this season is layered over a thin sweater and under a gillet for a casual look.

The history of the duffle coat is a long one but it’s one of the few clothing items that is traditionally British in design. The first duffle coat was made in 1890 by John Partridge who was an outdoor clothing manufacturer and was produced and worn specifically to keep people warm during the winter months.

The duffle coat was adopted by the British Royal Navy during the First World War and the design of this iconic coat was adapted throughout the Second World War to make it more functional. After the second world war, Britain had a lot of surplus military clothing which was made available to the general public in a time when very little else was widely available. It was therefore during the 1950s and 1960s that the duffle coat increased in popularity as a warm and affordable coat. Following the 1960s, people moved away from the traditional duffle coat in favour of jackets made from more modern materials such as polyester.

This year, however the duffle coat has made a come back and has been seen in numerous catwalk shows for the autumn/winter 2010 season. Although the styling is slightly more modern the concept remains the same. One such brand who has incorporated the duffle coat into their latest collection is Duck and Cover.

The Drew Duck and Cover Jacket is a quirky take on the traditional duffer coat. Available in contemporary black, this practical jacket features a full length zip, something not historically found on a duffle coat. Over the zip are the iconic toggle fastenings you’d expect to find on such a coat.

Two large zip pockets are mounted high up on the body to give a modern feel to this Duck and Cover jacket whilst a further popper fastening pocket can be found to the sleeve. To the inside of this jacket is quilted lining to keep you warm this winter whilst discreet button fastening internal pockets have been included for conveniently carrying your personal items. Infamous Duck and Cover branding can be found to the chest, hood and sleeve to convey the designer nature of this jacket. So if you’re looking for a funky look this season, why not invest in a Duck and Cover inspired duffle coat to add to your collection of mens designer clothes.

 

Duck and Cover Baltimore Jacket

Coined the coldest November in over a hundred years, it’s time to give your winter wardrobe some serious thought if you haven’t already done so. With temperatures dipping below freezing on several days throughout last month, you might want nothing more than to stay in bed but unfortunately unless your house is entombed in some serious snow, your employer is not likely to be very sympathetic. You will therefore need to invest in one essential clothing item this year – the winter jacket.

As this colder than normal winter has been expected by weather forecasters for at least the last six months, it has given the top designer brands ample time to incorporate stylish jackets into their winter collections. The popular brand Duck and Cover are no different and have bought a range of highly stylish yet still practical jackets onto the market for winter 2010.

Amongst the range is the Baltimore Duck and Cover Jacket which will make a great addition to your winter wardrobe. This practical jacket features a drawstring hood which is essential for keeping out the wind, rain and snow this blustery season. This Duck and Cover jacket is available in two contemporary colours black and slate. Both of these colours remain timeless in the world of fashion so this comfortable jacket can be worn for many seasons to come.

Although very practical for the winter months, the Baltimore jacket features all the style you would expect to find from a Duck and Cover jacket. To the chest are two large zip fastening pockets which are suitable for storing all your valuables from your wallet and keys to your mobile phone. Two further pockets can be found to the front of the jacket which is ideal for stuffing your hands into to keep them warm. To add to the pocket styling, a small button fastening pocket can also be found on the left sleeve.

With military styling big this season, Duck and Cover have incorporated a touch of this theme into the Baltimore jacket through the button detailing to the shoulders. Velcro detailing to the cuffs gives this piece from Duck and Cover jackets an edgy style touch whilst branding to the sleeve, hood and chest make everyone aware it’s a Duck and Cover jacket.
